We are beginning to understand the role the musculoskeletal system plays in endometriosis pain. It is now believed that by optimising muscle balance, joint mobility, fitness and posture it seems people’s experience of pain can improve. At tops:health we have specialist pelvic health physiotherapists as well as clinical pilates instructors who can assist with assessment, management and clinical rehab for pelvic pain. There are some basic exercises recommended by specialists and designed to improve pelvic health. However like all new forms of exercise, it is important to ensure you begin with small amounts and gradually build things up, not pushing your body into discomfort or pain.
